Inhibition of the ATP synthase sensitizes Staphylococcus aureus towards human antimicrobial peptides
Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an important part of the human innate immune system for protection against bacterial infections, however the AMPs display varying degrees of activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Previously, we showed that inactivation of the ATP synthase sensitizes S. au...
